Judge Metallica Sound Quality For Yourself Previously we brought word that the sound quality of the new Metallic CD is a disaster. Ted Jensen, head engineer at Sterling Sound, who mastered the album, allegedly responded to fan concerns, writing "I’m not proud to be associated with this one, and we can only hope that some good will come from this in some form of backlash against volume above [...]

Mixing Modern Music
http://newrockstarphilosophy.com/2009/02/15/mixing-modern-mu...A few months ago I attended a songwriters conference and learned about the mastering volume war that mainstream music has engaged in. Have a quick listen to some old tracks (60’s and 70’s) on your iTunes, then listen to something new (John Mayer). Notice a difference? Does it feel like the new music is screaming at you. Check the volume. You didn’t change anything. [...]

Metallica "Death Magnetic" - Distortion is deliberate, say band
http://mastering-media.blogspot.com/2008/09/metallica-death-...So, finally we have the statement from Metallica everyone has been waiting for. Drummer Lars Ulrich has spoken out - the full details are reported by Blender.com here . I'll pick and choose some points to comment on, but the main message is: "Listen, there's nothing up with the audio quality. It's 2008, and that's how we make records...

Parece que son ciertos los rumores de una mala producción en el disco de Metallica
http://sonicaster.com/notas-de-actualidad/parece-que-son-cie...Ya mencionabamos que había algo raro en el sonido del nuevo disco de Metallica, y no me refiero a la composición, si no a la producción y masterización de el mismo. Aunque ya andan confundiendo el exito del disco en ventas con la calidad de sonido del mismo, que poco tiene que ver, pues si el disco es un exito, obviamente es porque las personas quieren el nuevo material de la banda, y no porque les digan que el disco tiene una mala producción final no lo van a comprar.

Death Magnetic: Problemas de Audio
http://karakenio.wordpress.com/2008/09/21/death-magnetic-pro...El problema que presenta el disco Death Magnetic de Metallica no es algo nuevo o raro en la industria musical. Es una situación que se ha venido incrementando con el pasar de las decadas, pero en especial por el auge de los medios digitales. Ya se me habían atravesado expresiones como “Loudness War” antes, pero no le había prestado tanta atención hasta que mi banda favorita fue afectada por esta enfermedad de la buena música. [...]

Videogame sound quality beats CD
http://cvaspectratio.blogspot.com/2008/09/videogame-sound-qu...At least as far as Metallica's new album "Death Magnetic" is concerned, that is. There'd been some comments recently that the audio quality on the CD was overly compressed, and that in fact the audio quality of the songs in Guitar Hero (where the tracks were released day-and-date alongside the album) was considerably better. Now there appears to be some objective data backing up those claims. [...]
